INGPHI is delighted to announce that the “FORME LIBRE” project is the winner of the parallel study mandate for the new sports and cultural facilities at Les Cherpines, in the Commune of Plan-les-Ouates (GE). Fluid and elegant, the proposed solution integrates the use of wood, compressed earth bricks and recycled concrete, with a view to sustainability, as well as the preservation of the underlying water table, energy autonomy and responsible management of soil, earth and rainwater. Responding to current concerns, the future sports and cultural center will be a link, a meeting place, between the residents of the Communes of Plan-les-Ouates and Confignon and of Greater Geneva.
